We were lucky to catch up with Tonita Gray recently and have shared our conversation below.

Tonita, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. The first dollar your business earns is always special and we’d love to hear how your brand made its first dollar of revenue.

I got my first client through social media marketing. I continuously marketed my business and services that I was offering. I also shared the training and education I obtained to successfully complete the services offered. One day I received a direct message stating that they loved how I was knowledgeable and wanted to give me a try. We proceeded with the process and successfully completed it. That has been my client since that day!

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

I am a Tax professional. I got into this industry with a thirst for knowledge and the eagerness to share the knowledge received to educate my community on financial literacy.

In 2020, being a single mom not having that work/life balance, overworked and under paid, not having financial freedom, or time to spend with her kids while in the middle of a pandemic! Tonita knew that was not the life she wanted for herself and kids, so she quit her job, and invested her last $500 in savings to become the tax expert that she is today! She gained tons of knowledge and made sure she applied the knowledge received! After successfully ending her first season and fulfilling the role as Tax Professional while actually enjoying working with clients, educating them, building bonds, and becoming passionate about her duties she decided to increase her studies, further invest in herself and gain more knowledge about owning her very own Tax Service!

She studied and implemented the things she learned, while building her very own tax company from the ground up, working late nights, and simply showing up for herself by handling all the back-end work to manifest her dream of owning and operating an educational tax company which came to fruition in August 0f 2021!

In 2022 Eternal Tax And Notary Solutions LLC which is currently A rated with the Better Business Bureau opened for its official first tax season and Ms. Gray was able to exceed her financial goals in less than three months, purchase the luxury car she desired all while having work/life balance, & the freedom to spend all the time she wants with her kids! 🤗

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?

I think there Is a number of things that help build my reputation within my market. One being my commitment to helping my clients achieve their desired results with honesty and integrity. My passion to being a servant leader along with my knowledge shared plays vital roles in that as well. I genuinely love to help and educate others.

We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?

I built my social media audience through posting informative posts on my area of expertise. I showed consistency and professionalism. I didn’t aim to just sale to my clients but educate them as well while showing them the benefits of my services. The advice I would give to entrepreneurs just starting to build their social media presence is to remember just because they are not engaging doesn’t mean that they’re not watching. Your audience wants to see consistency and results. Be patient and remember to focus on the information that you have to share.
